THE TARIFF.
Never in the history of the conntrv, has
there been more need of a tardT for protec
tion than there is now. Owing to tho Re
peal of the Tariff of 184*2, and tho pissnge
of the Free Trade bill of 1846, the people
<>f the Unite ! States, are suffering the great
est monetary revulsion that has ever oceur
ied. Our manfacturers and mechanics are
not able to compete with Foreigners, and
r lie consequence is, that our country is flood
ed with British, French, ana other foreign
articles, and it takes all the the specie wc
can raise to pay for the in. If we had a Tar
iff sufficiently protective to enable our own
people to manufacture articles that we uecd,
mi J to employ tins labor of our own mechan
ics in their production, the specie would stay
at home, in- -ad of being sent abroad, and
we wuuid hear no more of pauics. Lite sim
ple truth of the whole matter is, that we buy
more than we sell—the balance of trade is
against us, and the difference has to be paid
in hard manty. This revulsion would have
occurred years ago, had not the gold of
California been just then discovered, but
even that has failed to pay the difference,
and the people in all parts of the country
will have to come hack to the protective
principle, or suffer the consequences of the
tolly of the Loeofooo party, in repealing it.
Ret the people have protection, and a
good sound currency, and a!! will be well.
EDITORS ELECTED.
It seems that the editorial fraternity are
pretty well appreciated by the people of
l'eiiosylvania. Among the list of those
elected to office, arc NimroJ Strickland, of
Chester county, for Canal Commissioner. —
For members ot the Legislature, John Hud
son of the Jejfersonian, from Chester coun
tv; J. lleron Foster of the Pittsburg Dis
patch: Col. A. K. MoClarc, formerly of the
ChauibersL.irg Transcript, beats Sanson) of
the Ftillon Democrat \ C. P. Rarosdrll of the
Venango Citizen ; G. P. Shaw of the New
Castle Gazette, and last, though not least,
G. Nelson Smith of the Johnstown Echo.—
The latter gentleman is elected notwith
standing the opposition of the former infa
mous editor of the ldedford Gazette. The
Democracy of Cambria by this, gave him
to understand that they are able to attend
to their own affairs without outside dicta
tion. Ed. Scull of the Somerset Herald
and Whig, has been chosen Prothonotary o*
that County ; E. J. Keenan of the Greens
burg Demoant, is elected Register and Re
corder of Westmoreland county, and Col.
T. 15. Searight, of the Genius of Liberia,
Prothonotary of Fayette county. E. 15
Moore, Esq , of the Norristown Watchman,
has been chosen Clerk of the several Courts
of Montgomery county. J. P. Hays of the
Crawford Journal, is elected Treasurer
of that County.
THE LATE ELECTlONS. —According to
the latest returns, Alex Ramsey, Repub
lican, has been elected Governor of Minne
sota, by a majority of about 700. Minne
sota will apply for admission the coming
winter, and this election is very important
as settling the politics of that State for
years to come.
In Ohio, Chase.llepublican, is elected by
s everal thousand majority.
lowa has also gone for the Republicans,
thy electing their Governor, and both
brandies of the Legislature
The elections are over and stump speakers
have ceased dinning in the ears of the pa
tient people. We are done, at least for a
while, with politics and politicians, and will
be abie during the coming winter to devote
more time and attention to our looal col
umns—noting carefully every thing of in
terest which may transpire in our county.
Fortunately for our quiet borough, we are
not often called upon to record the "acci
dents and incidents" which fill up the col
umns of other papers, and mark the misery,
folly or wickedness of mankind. No fear
ful murders, no Irish rows occur, no banks
or corporations suspend or "bust" among us
to startle the peaceful citizen, and afford a
local paragraph. But iD spite of their draw
back, Wb will endeavor to render our "lo
cals" as entertaining as possible. Our
friends throughout the county are requested
to contribute any matters of importance or
interest in their respective neighborhoods.
LYCEUMS.—The long winter uights are
coming, and they should be devoted to im
provement. There is no better and more
entertaining way of spending an evening in
Winter, than in a Lyceum or debating soci
ety. There is uot a village, hardly a school
district in the county, in which a society of
the kind could not be orgauized with a lit
tle effort, aod which would not be benefitted
by it. In Bedford, we have not had an in
stitution of the kind for a nuinbet of years,
while other towns all around us, no larger
than ours, have their flourishing societies,
and secure every winter the services of
popular lecturers from abroad. There is
no reason why we should be behind our
jieighbors in this particular.
FIGHT WITH AN EAGLE—TWO MEN
ATTACKED.—We learn frui un altogether
reliable source, that two men were attacked
one day last week, on Sideling Hill bv a
large grey eagle. The eagle flew at the
throat of one of the tuen who was a short
distance from the other, but the blow was
warded off. The eagle then struck him
through the wrist with his claw, when thev
closed and fell to the grocud in a fearful
struggle. The other man had his gttu with
hiut, but was prevented from tiring by fear
of killing his friend. He ran immediately
to his assistance and cut the throat of the
eagle. It measured nine feet between the
tips of its wings. Wo learn that the cnor
in >us bird is in possession of Capt. J. A.
Mann at Harrisonville, who has promised to
send it to & friend iu Bedford.
HANDSOME IMPROVEMENT.—K. L. An
derson, Esq., has begun the erection of a
handsome block of buildings on his lots in
Pitt Street, in the place of those burnt down
a year ago. The block is brick, with a
handsome open front. The first floor is de
signed for stores and offices, and the upper
stories for dwellings. It will be finished
by the first of April, and will add greatly
to the appearance of that part of our bor
ough. Mr. John Davidson is the designer
and builder.
THE COMMON Scuoor.s.—The Supcriu
dent of Common Schools, the lie*. 11. Hcck
ertuan has been engaged for the last month
in different parts of the county, iu making
examinations of the qualifications of appli
cants for teachers of our Free Schools. He
has granted a lirge number of certificates,
yet, wo learn that all the schools have not
been supplied. Some of the schools have
already gone into operation, and in a few
weeks they will all bo opened throughout
the county.
THANKSGIVING DAY.—We publish in
tiiis column, the Ftoolamation of the Gov
; cruor setting apart Thursday, the 26th °f
Nov. iast., as a day of Thanksgiving and
praise throughout this commonwealth. The
day will, no doubt, bo strictly observed bv
our citizens, and services will be hold iu the
different churches.

A PROCLAMATION.
Fellow Citizens: —To render to Almigh
ty God, who ct utrols the destinies of na
tions and men, the homage of devout grati
tude and praise for his goodness ami bis
mercy, is the appropriate uud solemn duty
of a free and highly favored people. As
the giver of every good and perfect gift we
should ever recognize llis baud in our mer
cies, and acknowledge our dependence upon
His providence; aud although adversity
may thrjw its dark shadow across our path
way, yet we should be asuired of this "the
Judge of ail the earth will do right."
During the past year tbe bounties of a
kind Providence have not been witheld from
our Common wealth. Our free institutions
have been preserved, aud our rights aud
priviliges, civil and religions, enjoyed and
maintained. The arts and sciences, and tbe
great iutcrcsts of education, morality and
religion* have claimed the attention and re
ceived the encouragement of an iutclligeut
aud liberal people. Honorable industry in
its varied departments has been rewarded;
and although recent and severe financial re
vulsion has tilled with gloom, sorrow and
distress, the hearts aud homes of many of
our citizens, yet no fear of famine, no dread
of inipendiug public or social calamity, min
gles with our emotions of gratitude for past
blessings, or weakens our trust for the fu
ture, in the providence of llitu who wounds
but to heal, and "whose mercy eodureth
forever." A plenteous harvest has crowned
the labors of the husbandman—peace with
its gentLe aud reforming influences, and un
wonted health with its benefits aud mercies
have beeu vouchsafed to us.
In acknowledgement of these manifold
blessings,we shold offer unto God thanksgiv
iug and pay our vows unto the most Higb:
aud call upou Iliai "in the day of trouble :
He will deliver thee .and thou shalt glorify
Him."
Under the solmn conviction of the proprie
ty of this duty, and in couformity with estab
lished custun and the wishes of mauy good
citizens, I, JAMES POLLOCX, Governor of
the Commonwealth of Peons ylvania, do here
by recommend THURSDAY THE TWENTY
SIXTH DAY OF NOVEMBER XEXT, as a day
of general thanksgiving aud praise through
out this State, and earnestly request the
people that abstaining from their usaal avo
cations and all worldly pursuits they assem
ble on that day aocording to their religious
customs, and unite in offering thanks to Al
mighty God for his past goodness and mer
cies; and while humbly acknowledging onr
transgression, aud imploring His forgiveness
beseech Him, with siucere and earnest de
sire, to return and visit ns again with His
loving kiudness, make us worthy of His
bounties, and continue to us the rich bles
sings of His provideuce and grace.

BEDFORD INQUIRER AND CHRONICLE.
Election Frauds lit .lllniicsota
[From Vu Chicago Tribune
Our Miuncsotu exchanges come to us fil
led with the details of enormous and dis
graceful frauds all over the border. The
Indians were plied with whiskey by Gov
ernment officials and others on the day of
election, and set to voting the Democratic
ticket; starved-mit Irishmen wore placed in
circuits, (with the proceeds of tho Fort
knelling swindle, doubtless,) to canvass
half a dozen precincts, and vote at each;
returns were openly manufactured; and fi
nally, Fern bin a county, with a voting pop
ulation of less than one hundred, has brought
in six hundred Democratic majority !
A correspondent writes from Glencoe,
McLcod county, Minnesota, uuderdate Oct.
17,
Oue hundred Indians, wearing their blan
kets at the time , voted on the Winnebago
Reservation the Democratic ticket. One
hundred and ten did vote; but the Agent
thought this was rntaer'stoep, so ho took ten
tickets out of the box, an d crossed the same
number ot names from the list.
[From the .Minnesotian, Oct. 22.]
Just as we expected and said, the reports
that a county called Davis had given 288
majority for Sibley, "all the votes cast,"
aud that a county called Pearce had polled
191 majority for Sibley; also "all the votes
east," turns out to have been a barefaced
fraud. Au interview with tbe alleged ex
piess messenger, who brought these reports
to St. Faul, enables us to explode tho whole
as a fiction, a fabrication, baseless and with
ont foundation. Ho now alleges that iu a
remnant of what teas Davis county, beyond
Meeker, there was a poll opened at, oue
place, at which 19 Votes are said to have
been polled, and that Sitdey received all the
votes cast there.
FEAKPIX JI'DCMEXT. — The Hullidaynburg
Standard, of a late date, says: '.'For some days
past there has bet n a singular story afloat in this
community, Whether true or not, we are not
prepared to say, hut the information conies from
such a reliable source that we are free to say
there must b.- something in it. It appears tlut
one day last week a mm in the neighborhood
of Mount Union, Huntingiou county, while
cleaning grain, suddenly discovered tint the
weuvel had destroyed the greater part of it.—
It so exasperated liiin that lie b laspheined
his Saviour in such a willful, m ill cious, and
wicked manner, that it will not liear putting in
print. He left the barn, and went tothe lions'",
t here lie sealed himself in a chair where lie
had lemained but a few minutes before he
turned to his wife, and asked her What she
said. She replied th it she haa not spoken.—-
"i thought, 1 ' said he. "that I heart somebody
say that I must sit here till the judgment day."
It is now alleged that lie is *lill sitting in the
chair. unable to rise or speak, with his eyes
rolling, and totally incapable of moving iiis
liody. His family, it is said, lias left the house,
where lie still remained, seated in the chuir on
Saturday last! What a terrible warning to
blasphemers who sutFer their passions to over -
sway their judgment."
DEATH OF GEN. VALENTINE BEST-DAN
VILLE Oct. 29.—General Valentine Best,
who lias long been well known in the polit
ical aff iiis of Pennsylvania as an active Dem
ocrat, died last night at his residence in this
place. Gen. Best was for twenty-five years
editor of the Danville Intelligencer, was a
member of the State Senate in 1848,'49 and
was Speaker of that body in the year 1850.
He was in the 57th year of his age.
DEATH OF MR. BACKHOKSE.— The Pitts
burg Cironicle announces the death of Mr.
J. B. Backhouse, of Allegheny county. —
The rumors circulated iu regard to his death
some days ago, although not then true, are
unfortunately now realized. Mr. B. seived
as a member of the House of Representatives
last Winter, and was re-elected at the late
election. Ilis death creates a vacancy in
tbe Allegheny representation.
THE WESTERN MERCHANTS. —The mer
chants of the far West are acting in a body,
and great difficulty is apprehended in the
collection of debts, especially as they seem
to have formed a defensive alliance with law
yers. The merchants of St. Anthony and
Minneapolis met in convention and resolved
to ask a general extension. St. Paul mer
chants have done likewise; lawyers have
agreed not to prosecute of levy any attach
ments for the same period.
SCARLET FEVER appears to be scourging
a portion of Mississippi. The Macon Bea
oan says that since the first appearance of
the disease in Noxubee county (three mouths
ago,) there have been upwards of a hundred
deaths. Iu some instances it has carried
off as many as five or six members of a fam
ily.
POST MASTERS LOOK OCT! —The Post
master General has recently decided that if
post masters do not give publishers of news
papers notiee when their papers remain in
the Post office without being taken out by
the subscribers within FIVE WEEKS, they arc
liable for the pay.
REMARKABLE CAPE.—A marriago took
place in Fairfax county, Va., on Saturday
last, of a couple who were divorced nine years
ago. In the mean time the man has beeu
married and his wife died, and on Saturday
he was again married to his former wife.
The officers of the army stationed in Kan
sas, have petitioned tne President for the re
moval of Gov. Walker, on account of his in
terference with the troops to induce them to
vote at the late electiou.
DISASTERS ON THE LAKES. —Upwards of
twenty Lake vessels are reported to have
gone ashore or foundered during the late

His mediuiues are universally admitted by
the American press to be far superior to all
others for causing the hair, ou the head of
the aged, to grow forth with as much vigor
aud luxuriance as when blessed with the ad
vantages of youth. Titer-' can bo no doubt,
if we place credit in the innumerable testi
monials which the Professor lias in his pos
session, that it is one of the greatest discov
eries in the medical world, it icstores, per
manently, gray hair to its original color,and
makes it assume a beautiful silky texture,
-Which has been very desirable in all ages of
the world. It frequently happens that old
men marry beautiful amiable young lauics,
and not unfreqnontly crusty old maids make
victims of handsome, good-natured young
gCOtlemrn, and by what process it has nev

attributed to the use of this invaluable Hair

The death of this estimable lady will be

ter of the late Judge Morrison. She was a
woman of great kindness and amiability of
temper, of rare talents nd accomplishments,
and was for many yean an ornament of the

reavement to her aged mother now residing in

and all bur children save one; to her husband,
to whom she was a faithful and affectionate
wife, and to her children, to whom she was a
fond mother.
She felt asleep in Jesus, sweetly trusting in
him for salvation; often repeating in her last
hours, that Christ was tbe author and finisher
of her faith. She waited calmly the approach
of death. If had no terrors for her. She bad
gained a victory over it and the grave, through
Jesus Christ, her Lord and Saviour.

IMIGOIUTOII,
OR LIVER REMEDY
IS AN ARTICLE THAT EVERY BODY
needs who is not in a perfect state of health
for the Liter is second only to the heart in our
human economy, and when that is deranged the
whole vital machinery runs wrong. To find a
medicine peculiar!/ adapted to this disease has
been the study f one ot the proprietors, in a
large and extended practice for the pas; twenty
years, and the result of his experiment is the
Invigorator, as a never-failing remedy where
m-dicinu his any power to help. As a Liver
Remedy it has no equal, as all testify who use
if.
A lady writing from Brooklyn, siys," Would
that I cAlld express in this short letter the val
ue your Invigorator has heen to tue in'jruisiug
n largo family of children, for it has never fail
ed to relieve all affections of the stomach, how
els or attacks of worms. If mothers once had
this remedy placed within their reach, and were
taught how to use it, a fearful and untold a
uiount of agony might be saved."
One of our prominent bankers says, "Five or
six years since I found myself running down
with a liver difficulty ; resorting to your Invig
orator, was greatly relieved, and, continuing
for a season, was entirely restored."
A clergyman called at our office the other

Among the hundreds of Liver Remedies now
offered to the public, there are none we can so
fuliy recommend as Dr. Sanford's Invigorator,

throughout the Union. This preparation is tru
ly a Liver Invigorator, producing most
happy results on all who use it. Almost innu- j
merable certificates have been given of the great
virtue of this mrdicine by those of tho highest '
standing in society, and it is, without doubt,
the best preparation now before the public.
